Quick q.
Anybody know which company(s) make good kits.
What should the price be for said kit.
Garages which fit them (unless it's a case that any garage can do the job provided the kit is good)

Thanks.
John

John - honestly youll pick a genuine kit up here for a few hundred and you would be able to fit yourself - Mr Lee has a good diy guide - dont waste your time buying cheap aftermarket kits and spend 15 pounds in bmw buying the genuine stickers to go in it - makes a difference

Ignore.
Nothing that a few phone calls couldn't resolve. Although still interested in members experiences of particular brands or companies to avoid.

No-one bothers with aftermarket ones anymore as you'll pick up a perfect genuine one for probably the same or cheaper price than what one of those tacky fibreglass ones would cost.

The fakes look soo bad.

If you wait, £400/450 could pick you up a great condition Tech2 kit in the same colour as your car (unless its been sprayed something different) and you could fit it in an afternoon.
